Complete, optimized 5.1-channel system

The JBL Cinema 500 home theater speaker system delivers the full impact of a movie by immersing you in the action with four surround-sound satellite speakers, a dedicated center-channel speaker and an omnidirectional, powered subwoofer. All of these components are engineered to work together and make your experience sound as epic as the action on the screen.

Voice-matched satellite and center speakers

The Cinema 500’s four identical, dual-midrange satellite speakers are voice-matched to the center speaker to ensure that sound remains consistent as it moves from speaker to speaker. This technology enables the Cinema 500 to create 360-degree surround-sound environments that create the experience of being in the settings portrayed on the screen.

Dual-midrange center and satellite speakers

What distinguishes the Cinema 500 from the Cinema 300 is the addition of an extra 3-inch (75-millimeter) woofer within each of the satellite speakers as well as the center-channel speaker. The extra dual-midrange drivers increase the system’s power handling and efficiency, letting you listen at high volume levels without distortion. These speakers are perfect for somebody who is setting up systems in larger settings … or for somebody who simply wants to annoy the neighbors!

Dynamic JBL Weave design

The Cinema 500’s speakers feature our exclusive Weave design, which makes them look less like speakers and more like a part of your room’s décor. Dynamic in appearance, this sculpted, high-gloss design stands out while simultaneously blending in with your own sense of style.

Its compact size belies its audio power.

The same JBL® engineering that goes into the speaker systems at many of the world’s best movie theaters has gone into a speaker system optimized for your home. Featuring a dual-midrange center-channel speaker, four dual-midrange satellite speakers and a 150-watt subwoofer, the system creates a massive home theater experience in a deceptively small package. Dual woofers on the satellite and center speakers let you crank up the volume without worrying about distortion, while the voice-matched center and satellite speakers render dialogue that is crisp, music that is immersive and sound effects that sound amazingly realistic. Finally, a down-firing subwoofer lets you feel an extra sense of “boom,” giving you the feeling that you’re not just watching a movie but fully immersed inside it.
